Don't try it at home. Leaving this clear, I found it very interesting to share with all of you this small but graphic timelapse video in which we are shown cHow to make a homemade tattoo machine. Although the objective of the video is to show us how would a tattoo machine be made inside a prison, we could apply it to any situation since the objects that are used to create the "tattoo machine" they are the most common.
A pen, several clips, a Walkman and several rubber bands are the only objects we need to be able to make our own homemade tattoo machine. Within the prisons of the United States there is a whole subculture of the tattoo world. And how the guards and prison officials do not allow you tattoo machines conventional, prisoners must look for other alternatives to be able to mark their skin behind the bars.
This video has been made by the guys from «A&E» on the occasion of the imminent premiere of documentary «60 Days in». A documentary of a new reality show in which seven participants are followed who, voluntarily, have signed their admission to prison to spend 60 days with the inmate population without (supposedly) the rest of the inmates and prison officials knowing of their reality.
By the way, we are aware that in the video there is talk of "Tattoo gun" when the correct term is tattoo machine. However, and seeing the quality of the video, we forgive this huge mistake. Without further ado, take a look at the video and share with us what you think.
